oops.  I forgot my adventures into realbasic & VB you don't need to declare
a string with str. A variable can be anything as long as it is not a
function or a command already in use.

I like stuff like this:

put bobTheGreatOne("smile face with eating grin") into aVatofAcid

function bobTheGreatOne someText
  if someText = "smile face with eating grin" then
    put "What are you so happy about?" into x
    return x
  end if
end bobTheGreatOne
